The Only Aura User In Magic World

Chapter 161 - Showing My Strength To One Annoying Guy

The north gate is where the monsters are the strongest and more in numbers than the other gates. But the hunters protecting that side is also the strongest. Kron was supposed to lead this area but he left to fight the monsters inside the city, so there's no leader here. But I think it's still fine.

From what I heard from Sonia, It was thanks to Kayla. She didn't step forward as the leader. She was just simply telling those who stays to stick with their party members and do what the leaders of each party members says. She's a smart girl.

While on the way, of course I killed the cult members on the way. Even in this location, there are traitors among the hunters. But thanks to Kayla's decision to have each party take care each area, no monsters entering the city.

I don't see anyone left who are fighting the monsters has HGB in their mouth. Then I can left this place to them. I'll just go far behind the enemy and kill them from the back. I'll go tell Kayla first.

I approached Kayla who seem to be just finished healing a patient.

"Alright, you should be healed."

"Thank you, Ms. Healer. When this is over, will you be so kind to have a dinner with me?"

Hmm? This guy just shamelessly flirt with my girlfriend in this situation. Well, knowing how beautiful she is, I think it must have happened many times before I come here. Kayla also has a tired expression when she heard that.

"No thanks. But I think my boyfriend will agree to come with you if you ask. He loves free meal. Sorry, that was wrong. Meals, I mean. He eats at least five portions for himself. You can ask him now since he's here." Kayla turned her head toward me.

Then following her, the guy also looked at me.

"So? About the dinner. Can I choose the place?" I asked the guy.

"Hell, no! If you already have a lover, you should have told me before!" The guy looked at Kayla again.

"I did. This is the third time you invited me to a dinner and every time, I answered with saying I have a boyfriend. And after the first time I told you, I tried to heal your hearing. It didn't work as expected." Kayla calmly said.

So this guy shamelessly flirted with her even after being rejected. Did he get injured that many time?

"I thought you just said you have a boyfriend as an excuse. I never thought you really had one." The guy still shamelessly replied.

"Then I will tell you this as a representative of all the women in the world. When someone told you she has a boyfriend, whether it was the truth or a lie, it means that they have no interest in you at all."

Ouch! That must be painful to hear.

"You… remember this!"

Why is he saying something a villain would say?

By the way, I have no intention to let someone who says that to leave just like that.

I grabbed his neck and raise him up.

"Remember what? Is that a threat I hear? Should I just feed you to these monsters?"

"Urgh… Ack…"

I put some strength into my grip as to not let him able to breathe easily. Just enough to not let him pass out.

"Wait! What are you doing? Release him!"

A woman whom I presumed to be another healer told me to let the guy go. Is she his party member?

"He threatened me. I don't feel safe knowing him alive so I thought it would be best to kill him." I just answered nonchalantly.

"Just release him! He will never do that again!"

"And how will I know?"

When I asked the healer, Kayla patted my shoulder and tell me to release the guy.

"Hey, just release him. The stampede is more important."

"Well, alright. Since my lovely girlfriend say so, I'll let you live. But next time I heard another threat from you, I'll kill you and no one will be able to stop me at that time. You're cool with that, right?" I also asked the healer girl.

"Yeah. Just please let him go."

I released my grip and the guy dropped to the ground. The healer girl casted a healing magic on the guy. What a waste of magic.

"You… "Is that another threat?!"" Before he finished speaking, I interrupted midway.

"…no. Sorry."

"It's good that you understand. Kayla, the other gates are doing fine. Vi… my summoned monsters is helping in the east gate. And since this is the place with the most monsters, I thought of helping this area for a bit." I almost leaked Victoria's name to these two. Good thing I noticed.

"Alright. Sophie and Angela are fighting the monsters over there. And Shirley tirelessly grabbing the injured people and brought them to any free healer she finds."

I guess that's what let this guy be healed by Kayla instead of his own friend. It was Shirley who brought him here.

I look over where the others are, and they are still doing fine. Except for Shirley who seems exhausted.

"Kayla, once I leave, I will also tell Shirley on the way to rest for a while. She's too exhausted flying all over the place filled with monsters. Healing magic doesn't restore stamina much, but it's still better than nothing. I will tell Shirley to get to you and you will heal her." I said to Kayla.

"Alright. You're leaving now?"

"The sooner I go, the more monsters I can defeat. See you soon."

I left Kayla and sneak behind the enemies. It was quite easy as all the monsters are too busy fighting other hunters. I approached Shirley and told her to rest. She agreed seeing that I'm here to help and go directly to Kayla's location while… those two are still with her. What are they talking about?

I also grabbed some rocks on the way to shoot them down. Then I look for a good location where my shot can reach the whole area. Since Victoria isn't here, the range is shorter. But it should be fine as long as the monsters are not too far.

I found a good spot on top of a tree and start shooting some rocks at the monsters that some hunter found it hard to kill.

After shooting several rocks, I left my spot and go to another spot while grabbing more rocks. Before I took care of the monsters from behind, I should make it easier for others to kill the monsters near the city first.

Then I see Kayla pointing at a monster. Why is she doing that? Does she want me to target that monster? Fine with me.

After killing the monster she pointed, Kayla pointed at another monster. Her face is looking at the two while Shirley just watching them. I guess Kayla want me to show how powerful her boyfriend is.

I keep shooting at the monsters she pointed until she stopped doing it. Then I continued killing other monsters near the city until I run out of bullet/rocks.

...….

Just after Roy left Kayla, Shirley appeared and Kayla instantly healed her. Then the guy from before who hadn't move at all said something that Kayla can't ignore.

"Just who does he think he is? I don't think he's a good match with you. You should break up with him."

"Hey! That's enough! Let's just kill some monsters already!" The woman with him told him to stop.

But before they leave, Kayla stopped them.

"Hey. Do you think he's weak?" Kayla provoked the man.

"What? Just because he can lift me with one hand doesn't mean he can be helpful against monsters. Do you think I'm wrong?"

"Very wrong. Look."

Kayla pointed at a monster. The pair and Shirley looked at where she pointed, and they didn't see anything of importance.

"What?" The man asked.

And soon, the monster Kayla pointed at suddenly had its head struck by a rock the size of a human head. The monster then didn't die, but the hunters around that monster used that chance when the monster lost its balance to kill that monster.

"What? What is that?" The man is confused that a rock suddenly appear and hit the monster out of nowhere.

"Look." Kayla told him to look again and pointed at another direction.

Again, a monster suddenly got struck by a rock.

"What happened?"

Then the woman with him noticed what Kayla wanted to proof.

"Don't tell me that was your boyfriend? What was the magic he used? That doesn't seem to be an earth magic. It was close to wind magic but it isn't."

"I just wanted to show you how strong he is. If you insist of having him as your enemy, you would never notice how you die."

The man's expression turned pale, and he left that spot right away. He no longer has any desire to get Kayla, or provoking Roy ever again.

"This… I'm sorry that my friend is rude."

"It's okay. Anyway, what is it that you wanted to talk to me about?"

The woman is actually the healer who helped Kayla drive away the man who wanted to be healed even though he was only scratched. And she told Kayla that she has something to talk about.

"I just want to ask if you are a student at a college majoring in healing magic."

"Well, I still haven't graduated my introductory school yet. And about going to college, I'm thinking of going there after two years. I still want to improve myself before busying myself with college." Kayla replied.

"Why? You should just go to college already! You can improve your healing magic once you're there. You don't have to wait two years!" The woman insisted Kayla to attend college.

Kayla was about to answer, but Shirley interrupted the two.

"Why don't you stay for a while in this city? After the stampede, there's an important event that's going to happen in Melk. If you see it, you will understand why Kayla wanted to have that two years."

"What event?" The woman asked.

"An event that will shake the world." Shirley answered confidently.

Of course the event Shirley talked about is making the existence of the cult to be known, and what their goal is. She will be the one to make a speech in front of everyone after the stampede is over and the governor is caught.

But that seem to be difficult.
